You might have noticed that I'm doing a series of videos looking at the various people and battles of Japanese history, as depicted in the Samurai Warriors games:
I'm not sure many realise, but the Warriors games tend to be very good at taking real history and spinning it into a format that's both entertaining and yet at the same time quite educational... a bit like movies like 300, really. It takes real cleverness from the creators to do that. Gun for entertainment too much and you lose the educational value of the game. Try too hard to be authentic and you run the risk of being seen as dull.
I think the Warriors game strike the balance better than anyone (perhaps aside from Assassin's Creed).
Let me know if you'd like me to do a video on a specific battle or character!
